You want to be first?
I would love to have it on my demo, maybe this winter.

I'm in the process of putting it on mine. Just got the rear shock together yesterday. I'm just waiting on my FAST system and my exhaust from Force to get the bike back together.

where did you get the rear spring swapped out anyway, and how much did it cost?

I've had my eye on them since they came out. I like my XB's suspension when I'm riding solo, but when I'm riding with my wife the bike feels really undersprung in the rear.

Be sure to let us know how it comes out.

*UPDATE* I just found a Buell parts and accessories bulletin dated 8/26/04 (BPAB #30) stating that the pro-series suspension fits '05 XB models ONLY (except XB12SCG). The only difference I know of between the CG suspension and the other XB suspensions (aside from being lower) is that the CG has the 41mm forks. It sounds like the pro-series kit only fits on bikes with the 43mm forks.

Guess I'll keep my stock springs : (

Fits '03-later XB models (except '04 Lightning Low XB9S and '05 XB12CG).
